Art iPhone Application

Time is so precious, which is why you want to use it really efficiently.

For those of us who have an iPhone there is this amazing new application for art lovers.




One is called ArtNear. It has five views (Near, Venues, Artists, Calendar and Bookmarks) and the "Near" function helps you navigate from where you are in town to the nearest art venue.







The second one is called the Brooklyn Museum iPhone App, which is meant to make the art museum visiting experience more interactive and personalized. This means it's not a standard museum visit everyone will go through and listen to the same recording. It means you pick an artwork and then the application does the curating for you....so you see artwork that are tailored to your tastes. I guess it works in a similar way to the  Pandora app, but for art while you're in the museum. Sounds awesome.

I found out about these two iPhone apps while reading an article that popped up into my MutualArt.com account- I love technology updates, it puts my time to good use! 

The article is called Technology-Enhanced Art Viewing if you want to check it out.
